Estimated Cost of Finances
The following estimated costs are to assist nonimmigrant international students in budgeting finances for their duration of studies at Regent University. These costs are for one year only. It is the student's responsibility to provide sufficient funds for each year of study, without relying on employment.
Students are allowed to work on-campus for a maximum of 20 hours per week and full time during holidays and the summer. It is the responsibility of the student to seek their own on-campus employment and money earned should be counted only as supplemental income for unexpected expenses, transportation, travel, and a return ticket home.
Figures are based on USCIS definition of full time attendance per academic year: Fall and Spring (6 hours per semester for doctoral programs; 9 hours per semester for graduate programs; Law School determined by first year required courses; 12 hours per semester for undergraduate programs). Regent University reserves the right to change tuition or other costs at any time. All costs are estimates only, and actual costs and expenses may vary considerably.
